@Cyrus K A Barnes said:
"This is what we expect our parents to teach the children, to uphold honesty and integrity."
@Amos Nartey replied:
"Cyrus K A Barnes hmmmm that's the problem. Some of the parents are just giving birth without giving good upbringing because they themselves are not good parents."
@Ayivi Richmond also said:
"These are the characters that need to be rewarded and celebrated in our society. In fact, we must go back to our roots to put moral lessons into our syllabus and also reintroduce religious studies in our schools to help shape our next generation. The values of being honest, faithful, dedicated, patriotic, obedient and humble. There are still honest people in our society but they are very few in our workplaces and community."
@Abass Abubakari commented:
"If you are true to your religion, this is what you get. I believe this is an encouragement to others. Allah bless you Salifu."
